# Miniamin: A Hapax Legomenon in Biblical Hebrew Miniamin (מִנְיָמִין) appears only once in the Hebrew Bible, classifying it as a hapax legomenon—a word attested in a single occurrence. This single-occurrence status severely limits what can be determined about its typical usage or semantic range. Based solely on the lexicon data provided, we know only that the word is a proper noun (a name), though the specific context and meaning of that single appearance are not included in the data supplied. The rarity of this term means that establishing its significance or range of meaning is not possible from the lexicon entry alone. Unlike words that appear multiple times across different biblical books and contexts, allowing scholars to trace semantic development and usage patterns, Miniamin offers no such comparative evidence. Any attempt to explain its importance would require accessing the biblical passage in which it appears—information not contained in the lexicon data provided here.
